How to disable assert statements inside a module?

[Skip Montanaro]

    Pearu> So, I would like to disable the assert statements in one module
    Pearu> while in others, that are under development, assert statements
    Pearu> are enabled.  Is it possible? I am using Python 2.2.

This comes to mind:

    s/assert /pass; #assert/

:-)
